Product Description

CD Description

Like 50 Cent, Loon's sudden rise to success belies the long, winding, hard-fought path the Harlem rapper took to get there. Seven years before his debut, Loon was signed to Tommy Boy as a member of the duo Crime Factory before hooking up with Mase to be the key element of Harlem World. It was stilla few years of hard work until he ascended to the level of sought-after guest artist, and he finally claimed fame stealing the show from P. Diddy & Usher on "I Need a Girl".
Loon's solo debut confirms why everybody wants the dulcet-toned, quick-witted MC for their tracks. Sporting a laid-back, easy delivery reminiscent of his Harlem World mentor, Loon spits out crisp lines that bridge the thug and underground worlds, balancing the streets with lighter pop culture. Thoughthe tightly produced music fits safely within the Bad Boy world, Loon subtly cuts that formula with a steady dose of hip-hop history, referencing numerous classics, from Slick Rick's "Children's Story" to the West Coast Rap All-Stars' message song "We're All in the Same Gang". And going back even further, the beat-boxed out "Friday Night" pays tribute to the spare, early-1980s sounds of acts like the Treacherous 3. Loon's immersion in the hip-hop's past and present, coupled with his knack as lyricist, allows his debut to measure up to the hype preceding it.

5.0 out of 5 stars BOD BOY RECORDS DO IT AGAIN, 5 Dec 2003
This album has great beats and great lyrics. This album has been in my favourite collection with the likes of the best 50 cent

This has been a long wait for Loon to have an album and it was worth the wait

P Diddy has done it again created a great album for the best people

Well worth the money as you wont be dissapointed

5.0 out of 5 stars Bad Boy Is Back!, 29 Oct 2003
Loon is the next generation of Bad Boy records. Hot tracks, hot rhymes. Excellent production as expected of P Diddy and his team of producers, The Hitmen.

Hot tracks: How You want That, Down For Me and Hey Woo.
Loon's hot but he's not quite up there wit Bad Boy greats like Biggie and Ma$e jus yet tho.

Still, Buy it now!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Loon is taking over..., 27 Oct 2003
Loon, really brings a new style into the rap game with his smooth laid back flow, different to all others. His style is addictive and he lays it down on every track he appeared on. His album is off the hook with the tightest beats (Made by the Hitmen) and some nice hooks that Loon flows smoothly and oh so nicely to.

Hottest tracks:
Between Us - Such a lovely song, nice beat and Loons rips his smoothest flow.
Hey Woo - What a club song, Missy gets the crowd going in the hook and Loon rips the rhymes with Diddy in support.
Can't Talk to her - Such a heavy beat, Joe hooker provides the usual hot hook, and Loon pours out his emotions.
Things i Do - The remake of aaron halls 'i like' and this is such a happy song, the message and flow off this song is off the hook!
Friday Night - Damn, a fast paced song and Loon rips this.

Buy this album, Its Bad Boy baby and Loon is the best artist out right now, seriously Loon comes off hot on this album
